A BIG BURGLARY.
A Brace of Thieves Rob House
and Are Captured.

Last evening Mrs. Benson, who keeps
a lodging house at 10 Commercial street,
heard some one prowling around the
house, She started out on tour OF in
and was rewarded by find.
ing two burglars going through a trunk
in her room. The lady is very large
woman, weighing about two hundred
and fifty pounds, and is as courageous
as lion. She entered the room and
grabbed both of the thieves by the
throat, and through the open window
she raised a cry of murder" and "po-
lice!" There was quite crowd acr.ss
the street, and although they all heard
her appeal, no one came to the brave
woman's assistance. She held the team
for some. time, but realizing
that they were overpowering her and
that help was not at hand, she was com
pelled to release them. After they had
departed she found that they had not
left empty handed but were accompa-
MED by $500 and gold watch belop gne
to herself, besides a gentleman's time
piece belonging to Mrs. Vincent. A set
of expensive garnet jewelry and pair
of bracelets. the property of roomers.
were also taken. The plunder secured
is valued at about 500.
1t seems almost incredible that q
woman would be brave enough to tussle
with a couple of burglars. when crowd
of men would stand by and turn deal
ears to her appeals for help.
Officer Botello was sent to the scene
of the robbery as soon as the news
reached the city prison, but he was too
late to capture the burglars. Later in
the evening Constable Aguirre. found
the culprits on Commercial and Main
streets and lodged them in the county
Jail on charges Of burglary. They gave
the names OF Ed McCann and Martin
Wipne, but the stolen property was mo-
found. The former is an old offender
but the latter is unknown to the police

JOHN SHERMAN, the perennial Repub-
lican candidate for the White House,
has been disconsolate for the want of
a congenial campaign subiec. since the
bloody shirt was stripped from the
Re publican party's back, and carefully
consigne to the limbo Of cast-of gar.
ments, worn threadbsre by that party's
stump orators. But he now has a SUBJ
iect viii ch will take its place, and he is
rolling it under his tongue as sweet
morsel to be spat out and slavered at
the head of the Democratic party in
1855. In reply to a question OF an
imaginary reporter he has said that "the
rebel hag question will not be forgotten;
it will rise up in the next campaign" !"
Does any one suppose that honest John
Sherman would fail to make capital out
of such a theme? By no means. twill be
his favorite text from this time on. He
will ring the changes upon it until
he works himself and the noodles be
feeds with this kind Of pabulum into a
paroxysm of idiotic fury. Cleveland will
be torn into more stripes than there are
tatters in the rebel flags to be trotted out
on every platform from Bangor to Milpit.
as. It will be honest Johns answer to
every question of policy. When asked
about the Republican tariff that robs the
farmer to enrich the manufacturer, he
will answers: "They wanted to re turn
the rebel flags" When his party is
charged with giving away the peoples
domain to the railroad monopolists, he
will say that "They gave back the
rebel flags" His argument will be unan.
,werable. and will delight that large
class of fellows who never went to the
front, but are still prosecuting the war.

FOUND DEAD IN HIS ROOM.

morey Hale Barlow Dies Suddenly-His
Relatives Thought to BE in Logansport.
New YORK, December 25.-Morey Hale
Barlow was found dead in his room to-day
at No. AZ Lafayette Place. He was sixty
years old, bachelor, and lived alone
there.
The greater part of his time was spent in
solitude with his books. He was a men,
Der Of the American Geographical Society,
the New York Historical Society, the HUI
guenot Society, and was at one time secre-
tary OF the Society for the Advancement
OF Sciences and Arts. He was q descend
ant of the family of which Nathan Hale
was member, and had given much re-
search to the incidents connected with the
execution of the young American patriot
by the British.
Last evening Mr.. Barlow seemed much
less morose than usual. and told the wife
OF the janitor of the building in which
he lived that he had at last succeeded in
making provision for the comfort of his
mother, who was eighty-three years old,
and his three sisters who lived with her.
Though known to many, this is the first
reference any one can remember him to
have ever made to his immediate family.
Rev. DR.. Wendell Prime, editor of the
New York Observer. and his associate.
Rev. Charles A. Stoddard, called at Mr..
Bartow's room, to-day, and searched it,
which was almost filled with books to
find some clue to his family connections.
Though both had had business relations
with him for years, they knew little about
HIM. On washstand they found a letter
signed Mother" postmarked "Logans-
port, Ind" They sent q letter to that
place announcing his death.

TRAIN ROBBERS FoILED.
They Fail to Get the Money on a Ira
StOnDad NV Than,

They Fail to Get the Money on a Train
stopped by Them.
KANSAS CITY, December 25.-A special
from Atoka, Indian Territory, says that a
bold attempt at train robbery occurred
near that place at a late hour last night
AS the southbound Missouri, Kansas and
Texas passenger was about to leave, two
men boarded the engine and compelled
the engineer to run to bridge a short dis
lance from the station. Upon arriving
there the train was stopped. At this point
i've more men joined the two robbers who
had first got on the train. All were armed
with Minchesters and revolvers.
The express messenger, John Grimshav,
saw them coming and he locked the door
and with the assistance of the baggage
master, who happened to be in the car at
the time, barricaded the doors and awaited
developments. The robbers, thus baffied
at the outset, forced the engineer to get
chisels and other tools and attempted to
break open the door. ALI assaults on 1t
were in vain, however.
The robbers fred several shots through
the car, and then went to the mail car
which was also bolted. They contented
themselves with firing through il several
times, and then went 10 the Pullman and
gave 1t a similar salute, without attempting
to get in. They finally returned to the ex-
press car where Grimshaw and the baggage
master still held the fort, and threatened
to set it on fire, This failed to brighten the
sturdy messenger, and after having detain-
ed the train thirty minutes without getting
q cent, the robbers rather sheepishIy rode
away. No one was hurt. Great credit Is
gwen GrimshaN for his coolness,
